LUBRICANT AND FUEL CHART

LUBRICANT AND FUEL CHART

Select the appropriate fuel, lubricant, and grease according to temperature by referring to the table below.
• Regardless of the specified time, change the oil if it becomes too dirty or degraded.
• When refilling, never mix oils of different brands. If a brand is to be changed, replace all of the fuel/oil.

If the ratio of traveling time to total operating time is high, replace the gear oil earlier than the specified time.

For water, use tap water (soft). Do not use well or river water.
When the ambient temperature drops below 0°C (32°F), add coolant (antifreeze). Follow the coolant manufactur-
er’s instructions to determine the mixture ratio.

***

The replacement interval for hydraulic oil depends on the type of oil being used. New machines are shipped from
the factory with the Takeuchi genuine hydraulic oil 46. This manual describes when to replace the hydraulic oil
assuming that this Takeuchi oil is used. When a conventional anti-wear hydraulic oil is used, replace it every 2000
hours.

Diesel fuel

To maintain the performance and service life of the engine,
always use clean and high-quality fuel.
• To avoid freezing in cold climates, use a light oil that still

functions when the temperature is at least 12°C (54°F) be-
low the lowest expected ambient temperature.

• Use a light oil with a cetane number of 45 or higher. When

operating at a very low temperature or at a high altitude, a
higher cetane number fuel will be required.

• Use fuel with an overall sulfur content below 0.5%. Be sure

to use fuel with an ultra-low sulfur content for applications
in the U.S. or Canada, in particular.

• The use of fuel containing a high sulfur content may cause

sulfuric acid corrosion to occur inside the cylinder.

• Do not mix fuel with any kerosene, used engine oil, or left-

over fuel.

• Poor quality fuel can degrade engine performance. It can

also damage the engine.

• Refrain from adding additives to the fuel. Some fuel addi-

tives can degrade engine performance.

Methods for inspecting performance

Hydraulic oil pressure (Boom, arm, dozer blade)

Measurement method

• Engine:

Maximum R.P.M.

• Hydraulic oil temp.: 50°C to 60°C (122°F to 140°F)
• Install a pressure gauge on the pressure detection

port. Operate the hydraulic circuit to be tested, and
measure the relief pressure.

Adjustment method

1. Loosen the locknut (2), and turn the setscrew (1) to

adjust the set pressure.

• Turn the setscrew clockwise to increase the set

pressure.

• Turn the setscrew counterclockwise to decrease

the set pressure.

2. In order to keep the setscrew (1) from turning after

the pressure has been adjusted, tighten the locknut
(2) while holding the setscrew (1) firmly in place.

Lock nut: 30 ± 2 N·m (22.1±1.5 ft.-lb)

3. Operate the relief valve once more to confirm that the

pressure that has been set is stabilized.

Hydraulic oil pressure (Slew)

Measurement method

• Engine:

Maximum R.P.M.

• Hydraulic oil temp.: 50°C to 60°C (122°F to 140°F)
• Install a pressure gauge on the pressure detection

port. Operate the hydraulic circuit to be tested, and
measure the relief pressure. (Secure the upper struc-
ture so that it cannot slew in the direction to be mea-
sured.)

Adjustment method

The set pressure cannot be adjusted while the relief
valve is attached to the slew motor. If adjustments need
to be made, replace the relief valve assembly.

Hydraulic oil pressure (Pilot pressure)

Measurement method

• Engine:

Maximum R.P.M.

• Hydraulic oil temp.: 50°C to 60°C (122°F to 140°F)
• Install a pressure gauge on the pressure detection

port to measure the relief pressure.

Adjustment method

1. Loosen the locknut (1), and turn the setscrew (2) to

adjust the set pressure.

• Turn the setscrew clockwise to increase the set

pressure.

• Turn the setscrew counterclockwise to decrease

the set pressure.

2. In order to keep the setscrew (2) from turning after

the pressure has been adjusted, tighten the locknut
(1) while holding the setscrew (1) firmly in place.

Locknut: 15.7 N·m (11.6 ft.-lb)

3. Operate the relief valve once more to confirm that the

pressure that has been set is stabilized.

Natural travel drop

• Engine:

Stopped

• Hydraulic oil temp.: 50°C to 60°C (122°F to 140°F)
• Inclination angle:

15°

• Measuring attitude: Fully extend the boom, arm, and

bucket cylinders. Completely retract the dozer blade
cylinder.

• Leave the excavator parked at an angle for 5 minutes

and then measure the amount of natural drop.

Slew time

• Engine:

Maximum R.P.M.

• Hydraulic oil temp.: 50°C to 60°C (122°F to 140°F)
• Measuring attitude: With the bucket in a no-load state,

completely retract the arm cylinders, and then fully ex-
tend the bucket cylinder and make adjustments so that
the boom foot pin and bucket pin are at the same
height.

• Set the upper structure in motion, wait 1 rotation, and

then measure the time required for the next 2 rotations.

Overrun when slewing stops

• Engine:

Maximum R.P.M.

• Hydraulic oil temp.: 50°C to 60°C (122°F to 140°F)
• Measuring attitude: Same as that for measuring slew

time

• Draw matching marks on the outer race of the slew

bearing and the lower frame at points rotated exactly
180° from the starting point. With the hoe attachment
in a no-load state, slew another 180 degrees, at which
point the operation lever should return back to neutral.
Measure the difference between the position marks
and the point at which the hoe attachment was
stopped.

Natural slew drop

• Engine:

Stopped

• Hydraulic oil temp.: 50°C to 60°C (122°F to 140°F)
• Inclination angle:

15°

• Measuring attitude: Same as that for measuring slew

time

• Rotate the upper structure so that it is directly abeam

of the grade. Next, draw positional marks on the outer
race of the slew bearing and on the lower frame. Mea-
sure the amount of distance that opens up between
the marks after 5 minutes have passed.
